Accidents Don’t Give Advance Warning!
If you’ve ever been involved in a car accident or a slip and fall accident, you know how suddenly things happen. In a split second, your entire life and possibly that of your family’s can be irreversibly changed.
In the chaos, pain and confusion that follow, seeking legal help is probably the last thing on your mind.
However, as Burlington personal injury lawyers know from experience, it’s wise to consult a 24 hour injury lawyer to seek advice and ensure that your rights are protected. Immediately!
As Soon As Possible!
Accidents are often caused by someone else’s fault or negligence. The injured have to incur:
- Loss of income/wages
- Loss of earning-capacity in case of serious/permanent damage
- Medical and rehabilitation expenses
- Pain and suffering
“What we seek is some kind of compensation for what we put up with.” Haruki Murakami
The injured are entitled to seek compensation from those responsible for the accident.
Ontario residents can claim statutory benefits and/or sue the at-fault party in a civil action for damages.
It’s wise to begin the process early with the help of an experienced Burlington car accident lawyer.
This is because the process is:
- governed by strict time-frames
- complex and time-consuming
- requires familiarity with insurance-regulations and personal injury law
- requires familiarity with current revocations/additions/alterations in laws and regulations
Do I Need A Lawyer?
Top-rated accident lawyers often face this question from accident victims/families.
Victims and families assume that insurance-companies and/or liable parties would act in good faith and provide adequate settlement.
However, the reality is:
- Injuries can be more serious than presumed
- Liability/Negligence are difficult to establish
- At-fault parties may dispute your claim
- Settlement offered is meager
- Disputes and delays happen
